Boost problems

[Claus Vegener]

Once I decided to change the WG membrane - just in case -
and removed it without big problems, but I happens to rotate
the piston slightly - and after that it was not tight.
No boost at all
Rotate right, left, whole way round etc - no change.
Put a electrical powertool on it - no change -
Put in an old spare WG complete from my old engine.
And no problem -
